But I am going to start sanding it tomorrow. At some point this week, strip the paint and re-stain or paint it. I know it had to been painted/"antiqued" recently because of the section of the store I bought it in. (Everything was painted white or this blue color). So hopefully it won't require too much elbow grease.
I hope that soon the finish will look similar to these book shelves:
To stain or not to stain?
Very similar, huh? I must like it!
Paint Black?
Paint green, to match my "Keep Calm and Carry on" poster?
Def. not painting it white...
I guess it depends on what the wood looks like and how good of shape it is in before I can determine whether to stain or paint. All I know is that the blue has GOT to go. Been meaning to do it since I got the piece. Now that I will be in town the next 2 consecutive weeks, I think I can finally start it!
As I was researching, found this FABULOUS book shelf. I'm LOVING it.
Praying this project doesn't end like this:
